Hello, I am so excited to be here today to share my Market Street Stamps projects!
But first, HAPPY BIRTHDAY, MARKET STREET STAMPS!!!
Wishing you wonderful folks many, many more!
I have created a few projects to showcase the versatility of these awesome stamps!
My mother in law was never a great cook, but she was amazing at making soups. My husband grew up with a big pot of piping hot soup on the stove every night. He loved it. I loved it. Before she passed away in 2007, one of the last things she did was pass her recipes down to me. At the time, I diligently wrote them down by hand and eventually typed it all up. It was always on the back of my mind to make a little soup recipe book. When I saw the big pot image in Comfort Food -- it clicked! Here is my mother in law's collection of heartwarming soups...

I used Perfectly Pretty Grid for the background. Love all of MSS's background stamps!

I wrote a little tribute to her...

All the recipes are handwritten to give it a heartfelt feel... if that makes sense. I want my girls to pick this up one day and see my handwriting instead of something I printed from the computer. It is one way I thought could connect one generation to another.
I also made a matching card...

Now any of my friends can tell you that I am an avid cook. I created my own recipe book of my favorite recipes that I've collected throughout the years. When you're cooking 4-5x a week, it's so easy to get into a rut and forget to make the really good stuff. I don't want to deprive my family of my yummiest creations, so this recipe book will serve as an inspiration when I "just don't know what to cook for dinner tonight!" I've also sneaked in a few top secret dessert recipes!


The inside of the pages were stamped with Vintage Notepad.

And a last card using Comfort Food!

You can always find me on my blog

Have a SOUPER day!
xo,
Kryssi
